OhioHealth Implements Visitor Restrictions at All Locations

From Ohio Health's Website:

In an effort to protect our patients, visitors, physicians and staff from COVID-19, OhioHealth has implemented the following visitor restrictions at all OhioHealth hospitals, effective Monday, March 16 at 7 a.m.

Visitor guidelines

Visitors must be 18 or older.

Patients will be limited to one visitor at a time, up to two visitors per day, in most areas of the hospital.

Maternity patients will be limited to one support person during their entire length of stay.

In-person Behavioral Health visits will no longer be permitted, due to the common space these require.

Visiting hours are 8 a.m. to 9 p.m. Overnight visits will not be permitted, with the exception of end-of-life situations.

We will make limited exceptions for end-of-life patients and for those with disabilities who need assistance.
